The Way It Hurts Lyrics by Small Talk

Blossom

2018

[Intro]
One, two, three, go!
[Verse 1]
Does it destroy you, darling
The thought that we're just ordinary?
Does it rip your beating heart out of your chest
The thought that one day we'll carry our regrets
To our graves?
Oh, it's a made up world, oh, it's a made up world
I beg you to stay in this moment with me
Oh, it's a caught up way, oh, it's a caught up way
I find my heart's in open space
There is something about you
That I keep coming back to...
[Chorus]
For it tastes so sweet
I must admit this glorious defeat
You are the most complete
Person to walk these haunted streets
So dance with me, we'll work ourselves to a shadow
Wipe your tears on my sleeve
Let it all go, let the future remain unknown
[Verse 2]
Does it destroy you, darling
To the point of disorder? You ungraciously decline
Any offer to feel the sun, to seize the flowing tide
To fly high above the ashes
You stay resistant to try appearing sceptical
That life's begun
You're walking blind when love is kicking at your heels to run
Oh, it's a restlessness
A driven stride that mends a broken mind
For under our skin
There is a constant buzz within
And nothing really seems to matter
I'll display my heart on a silver platter
Escaping the drought, the endless chatter
[Bridge]
No, shan't surrender to paralysis
I haven't the time
All I see is the
Love you have to show
And as this ache inside grows
The more we have to lose
On we'll march into the night
Your prickled hands in mine
[Chorus]
For it tastes so sweet
I must admit this glorious defeat
You are the most complete
Person to walk these haunted streets
So dance with me
We'll work ourselves to a shadow
Wipe your tears on my sleeve
Let it all go
Let the future remain unknown
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
The way it hurts right now we can't dismiss
But it's too far till dawn to reminisce
Jump up my dear don't let it linger
Wrap your love round my hands, my heart round your finger
It's a life like ours that's worth attention
Don't plague ideas into a fourth world dimension
The sky's so clear, a brilliant gold
And we watch in wonder, our eyes unfold
There's so much yet to be told, so much that's not been said
And I don't want to go home just yet (I don't want to go home just yet)
I don't want to go home just yet (I don't want to go home just yet)
I don't want to go home just yet (I don't want to go home just yet)
I don't want to go home just yet (I don't want to go home just yet)
I don't want to go home just yet (I don't want to go home just yet)
Just yet...
[Chorus]
For it tastes so sweet
I must admit this glorious defeat
You are the most complete
Person to walk these haunted streets
So dance with me
We'll work ourselves to a shadow
Wipe your tears on my sleeve
Let it all go
Let the future remain unknown
